Building Control has been at the heart of what we do since the company was founded in 2005; however, as the built environment continues to evolve, so do building regulations and the requirements of our clients.
Remaining resilient to the ever-changing world of the built environment is an essential part of the service we offer. We ensure the compliance and safety of buildings by guiding our clients through continuously changing regulations and standards.
Assent has continued to expand as a multi-licenced business with the addition of Oculus Building Consultancy and LB Building Control in 2017, increasing the company’s network, services and areas of expertise. Most recently, Assent acquired leading fire safety training provider Xact Consultancy & Training to deliver high-quality training and qualifications in fire safety to the Fire Service, fire risk assessors and building users (duty holders).
